I absolutely love them, so does my new husband, so much that when he accidently dropped one & it broke, he felt so bad. He suggested to get another set, I also ordered the cereal & dessert sets, when they went on sale. My dinnerware is plain white & I've been adding a little color lately as I find things I like.  The different patterns make us happy & we find lots of things that they can be used for. they are beautiful & a  great addition to my collection, I Love them!
